Why MuDD-DRY Outperforms Lime, Sawdust, and Cement for Solidifying Liquid Waste

When dealing with self-levelling slurries and liquid waste from HDD, tunneling, or hydro-excavation, site managers have historically turned to lime, cement, or sawdust. While these materials do absorb liquid, they also introduce serious trade-offs:

• Increased volume: Lime and cement add considerable bulk, raising transport and landfill costs.

• pH disruption: High alkalinity makes disposal more complex and environmentally risky.

• Unpredictable results: Consistency depends on weather, material blend, and reaction time.

Why MuDD-DRY Is the Superior Choice

MuDD-DRY is a next-generation polymer engineered to solidify liquid waste quickly—often within 15 minutes—and without affecting pH or microbial balance in the soil. Unlike traditional methods, it keeps the material stackable and transport-ready without excess weight.

Benefits over traditional methods:

• ✔ No increase in volume

• ✔ Stable under pressure with no leaching

• ✔ Eco-safe: no hazardous classification changes

• ✔ Usable on-site, reducing tanker hire

Whether you're managing a tunneling job or running a soil wash plant, MuDD-DRY is the smarter, faster, and safer choice.
